Hi,
While I actually agree that this something that is pointless to a degree - I am not sure it is actually internet-connected. It looks like from my reading of the KS Page - to be Bluetooth only, which reduces the threat down quite a bit.
But the fundamental issue of having something being able to auto-ignite a potential fire hazard.
I admit, I perhaps wouldn't want one of these myself, but there could be in a controlled environment, practical usage for this type of thing, perhaps a model of the product for churches or other places of worship - the staff can light with one touch of an app.
Restaurants can remotely light a candle when they see a couple sit down.
Fake mediums can use it to "spooky" light a flame to signal that a ghost has arrived. What I am saying, don't totally write off a product as stupid because you believe and fear that it could be remotely used by bad actors. Not saying the threat isn't real or possible. Perhaps, a better line of discussion would be as professionals.
If a client did want to use these, how can we protect them? What cybersecurity measures can we use to ensure this product would be safe for people to use?
